At this year’s North Pole pageant, Dottie is crowned “Best Elf” and in her speech remembers how it all began. Through flash-back, we see how Dottie the witch arrived at the North Pole to take back Christmas – something she had loaned to Santa for a couple thousand years. Now she wants it back, expecting that with it, she might finally get a life full of love and acceptance – just as Santa does. But, the threat of losing Christmas makes the elves reject this scary witch – that is, until Peppermint Bear uncovers what Dottie truly wants most and the elves teach her how easy it is to get it – without taking Christmas away. The story flashes-forward and everyone celebrates Dottie’s win, happy to have her part of the Christmas family at the North Pole.
The Peppermint Bear show is a classic at Lakewood Theatre Company and it’s perfect for families and full of holiday cheer. Each year a new 45-minute episode is presented. A light continental breakfast with rolls, muffins, donuts, fruit etc and juice, and coffee is provided. It’s a show that is perfect for ages 3-103. Doors open 20 minutes before each show.

Set in New York City, Miracle on 34th Street, the play is a heartwarming holiday classic that follows the journey of Kris Kringle (Robert Lovitz), an older man released from a retirement home, who gets a job working as Santa Claus for Macy’s holiday season.
Doris Walker (Ariel Puls), a single mother who works at the same Macy’s, doesn’t want her daughter, Susan (Georgia Krugel), to believe in any romantic notions about Santa. Complications arise when neighbor and lawyer Fred Gayley (Conor Eifler) tries to win Doris over by taking Susan to see Santa Claus. Young Susan is enchanted by the experience, but Doris remains doubtful. Kris surprises both customers and employees by claiming he truly is Santa Claus and begins directing parents to other stores to find the specific toy their child wants.
Seen as deluded and dangerous by Sawyer (Jacob Bean-Watson), Macy’s vocational counselor, Kris faces a court hearing overseen by Judge Harper (Mark Schwahn) to verify the validity of his claim and, more importantly, his authenticity. But what is truly at stake is one little girl’s belief in Santa and her mother’s willingness to give love another chance.
